Bluebird Care

The UK’s foremost Care Franchise in a huge and growing market...

With government initiatives backing the care at home sector, award-winning Bluebird Care is well positioned to continue its rapid national franchise expansion

About Us

Bluebird Care is the UK’s most experienced care franchisor, drawing on over 40 years care and franchising experience. We work closely with our franchise owners to build their own care business in a market worth some £20 billion annually.

Operating in the recession resilient sector of providing care at home, Bluebird Care’s proven business systems and procedures ensure not only top quality care provision but also a viable, profitable business format.

Bluebird Care is a management franchise and our franchise owners come from a wide variety of backgrounds – care experience is not required. Our training and support systems will provide our franchise owners with the care business knowledge they need and our proven business format provides the correct staffing structure.

The Bluebird Care franchise network is spread throughout England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland and is expanding rapidly, with nearly 100 offices

“We are very successful because we are very good at what we do – franchising at its very best!”

Benefit from our experience

The three directors of the Company, Paul and Lisa Tarsey and Simon Dalziel, have many years of experience in both the care and franchising sectors. They recognise the importance of having this unique business experience available to support their franchise owners.

They have also put together a very experienced franchise business development & support team to provide our franchise owners with the expert help and advice they expect and deserve. You cannot replace experience and Bluebird Care has plenty!

Bluebird Care enjoys excellent relationships with the major banks in franchising – NatWest, HSBC and Lloyds TSB. Subject to status they would look to lend up to 70% of the total investment (including working capital).

Therefore, you will need a minimum of £25,000 liquid capital.

Previous experience in the care sector is not necessary - most of our franchise owners have not worked in care before. We seek people who have a passion for starting their own care business, have the necessary management experience and who have an empathy with providing high quality care.

Franchise Owner support

Our franchise owners enjoy a tailored support package designed to meet their needs, whatever stage their business is up to. Upon joining the Network franchise owners are allocated a Business Development Manager who will act as their mentor to get them up and running as soon as possible and support them thereafter.

Award-winning Bluebird Care

The success the Company has achieved has been recognised with a string of recent awards across the Network.

Franchise quality was recognised by being nominated as a finalist in the British Franchise Association/HSBC Franchisor of the Year, after only 4 years of operation as a franchise. We were delighted to be nominated as a finalist alongside some household franchise names – we were in fact the youngest company to be named as one of the top 8 franchises in the UK.
